This Café In Greece Provides A Safe Haven For Stray Dogs After Close Hours

In Greece, a growing number of people have to make the decision to abandon their beloved pets due to financial constraints. However, there are places like Hott Spott, a special café located in Mytilene, Lesbos, that have become a sanctuary for stray dogs.
Since July, this café has been providing a warm, safe space for homeless dogs to sleep every night after the café closes. This is a wonderful act of kindness that shows how much people care about these dogs in Greece.

A Café With A Big Heart

In a Facebook post by Eustratios Papanis, a picture taken at a coffee shop on the island of Lesvos, North Aegean Sea, Greece, has warmed many people’s hearts. It shows a group of stray dogs napping on soft cushions inside the Hot Spot café. When the café's customers leave, the café workers let these stray dogs come inside to sleep and stay warm.
As one of the café waiters said, "When the bar closes each night, the dogs come and sleep here. We don't have a problem. From July, every night there is a dog on the couch."

Lesbos is not just known for the refugee crisis; it's also a place where people show kindness and care.
Eustratios Papanis, who shared a photo of the café on December 3rd, explained that "the locals have increased levels of solidarity towards environmental and humanistic issues. The new generation is more sensitive and well-informed."
This means that people here care about the environment, humanity, and even the dogs that need help.

Greece has a lot of stray dogs, and it's a big problem. But in Greece, people have a different way of taking care of these dogs. Instead of just leaving them alone or putting them in busy animal shelters, they look after them together as a community.
In Greece, it's common for people to work together to care for stray dogs. They feed them, pet them, and play with them. These dogs become pets for the whole community, not just one family. This way, they get the love and attention they need.
